It’s a wonderful journey to Egypt. The good planning from accommodation to antiquities Egyptian visiting was unforgettable.its your chance to feel safe and relax with this group. The team of Ancient tour provided an amazing high quality of service during all days in different places. The chosen hotel was great in location as well as services, visiting national museum, pyramids with a literature man who was a unique. His knowledge about the history, places, names & dates was unbelievable. Also, going to Nile cruise was a beautiful new experience to see many cities and historical places from Aswan to Luxor during day while involving in some entertainment activities in the night. Really I spent a beautiful time with this team & recommended any visitor to Egypt to engage with Ancient tour to value his staying & get an appropriate knowledge.

I went to Egypt in Oct 2019 for the first time, as solo female traveller. I have travelled to other countries before also as a solo traveller. However, as someone who has appreciated the long history of Egypt I wanted to have the experience of a guide. I chose Vacations to Go after much thought and consideration. I was pleased with the online reviews and had personally called the company and spoke to Walaa who patiently answered all my questions and alleviated any doubts I had about booking with them. For all those considering, understand that in Egypt there are many tour companies! Egypt is still, and will always be a place for tourists to go regardless of any political situation simply because of what it offers. I mean it wholeheartedly, very few countries in the world offer the same amount of incredible and breathtaking monuments that will inspire you and enchant because of its mysteries and wonders. I arrived at Cairo Airport and was immediately greeted by Michael. Michael was amazing in how he made sure that I felt comfortable, even assisting me with getting a late check out. On my last day in Cairo he even assisted me with booking an Uber ride to the airport remotely. (Uber was my choice I altered my plans, Vacations to Go always takes you, to and from airports). While I was in the Uber taxi, he even called the driver to check that I was safe. That was so appreciated. That extra mile and care just made me know that I had chosen the right company. My two days in Cairo was with a wonderful guide Maged. He was so generous in making sure I saw all that I had wanted to in Cairo. He even accompanied me to descend down the Red pyramid, for which we both got wobbly legs and joked about. Maged was an amazing guide, thank you so much. I also met Magdy, the director of Vacations to Go, who accompanied me to the airport from my hotel to Cairo airport en-route to Luxor. He was also friendly, and made me feel safe. In Luxor, Mansour was my guide, he was so committed and passionate about all the places in Luxor. He also went out of his way to ensure I saw all that I had requested and was just as generous. (Thank you Mansour) I went to Alexandria and had Marchel (hope spelling is ok) as the guide. He did a great job of showing me the place, as there were some other interesting travellers who had joined the day tour. I also wish to commend all the drivers I had, they were all incredible. I have so many treasured memories of Egypt and none of these would be possible if it hadn’t been for Vacations to Go. I paid the single supplement as I preferred travelling on my own and was glad I did as it allowed me to bypass quite a few of the crowds and made travelling a lot easier for me. I highly recommend Vacations to Go and for those thinking of going to Egypt, - go with an open mind and open heart and embrace all that it has to offer. As a solo female traveller, I felt safe and respected with my guides at all times and comfortably enjoyed my holiday! Thank you again!

Most particularly the knowledgeable, friendly personnel. Hussein was our guide for the 7 days River Nile cruise and Basem Wagdy guided us in Cairo. They were outstanding not only with their expert knowledge and the way they explained everything but also in looking after us re the cultural norms. Judith and William McElhinney.

Just returned from Egypt.an experience of a life time a tour,Memphis tours catered for all our various requests.We had 2 private guide and drivers with airconditioned cars plus riverboat cruise. Both guides were excellent with wealth of knowledge on Egyptian history.(Sam) Ossama Mustafa was so helpful and understood our needs with my wife and her health issues helped us to see all the important sites around Cairo and Alexandria- (we have adopted him as our Egyptian son).Took us to his favorite restaurant in Alexandria and food was fantastic-The driver Eman Sayed was the bravest and most skilled driver in Cairo and we requested him when we returned. How he was able to get us around Cairo without incident was amazing and always so polite. All drivers in Cairo and pedestrians have a death wish and there are no rules that are followed. We were met at the Cairo airport by a very helpful young man from Memphis tours - Ahmed Sayed who navigated us though the various trips to the airport and hotel Our personal guide was Alaa Rashwan on the river cruise and tour of sites in Aswan and up to Abul Simbel he was also very helpful and got us away early to beat the rush at various sites Again his knowledge was amazing and I am sure he enjoyed telling the history to my wife who absorbed every word. Luckily we were helped along the way by the guides with tipping. We felt completely safe in Egypt and while it is dirty in Cairo the people are very friendly and we never got sick.
